iStochastic - MQL4 Documentation

double iStochastic(

string symbol, int timeframe, int %Kperiod, int %Dperiod, int slowing, int method, int price_field, int mode, int shift)

Calculates the Stochastic oscillator and returns its value.

Parameters:

symbol	-	Symbol the data of which should be used to calculate indicator. NULL means the current symbol.
timeframe	-	Timeframe. It can be any of Timeframe enumeration values. 0 means the current chart timeframe.

shift	-	Index of the value taken from the indicator buffer (shift relative to the current bar the given amount of periods ago).

Sample:

  if(iStochastic(NULL,0,5,3,3,MODE_SMA,0,MODE_MAIN,0)>iStochastic(NULL,0,5,3,3,MODE_SMA,0,MODE_SIGNAL,0))
    return(0);
